Congrats! Was your final round 4 coding challenges? I have the final round for pinterest coming up but 4 hours seems very long 😓 any advice on how to survive?

also, could i ask why you chose pinterest over fb, google, and slack? i have another offer rn and was wondering what specific pinterest things made you want to go with them instead?

full plank Dec 1, 2021, 6:42 AM

#

Huh only interviews cancelled LOL

Also i felt Pinterest offer was strong enough TC wise that I was fine "settling" for them

FB and Google would have been hard to match in Seattle I think?

And it would have taken me 1-2 months to hear back my status on them

As for slack, they didn't pay enough to compete against pin, although they did offer remote I think?

#

!salary slack

dim pumice Dec 1, 2021, 6:46 AM

#

thanks for letting me know! did the company culture play a factor in "settling" for pinterest or was it mostly TC? basically do the people there seem easy to work with, or was the pay high enough that it overruled that?

@full plank for slack did you just apply online

full plank four LC med/hard interviews

hi, how many questions did they ask for each round? Thanks

full plank Dec 1, 2021, 7:17 PM

#

Hey, it was around the same "topic" question, but each interview had maybe like 3-4 follow ups

winter elm Dec 1, 2021, 7:20 PM

full plank Hey, it was around the same "topic" question, but each interview had maybe like ...

wow, that's a lot of follow ups. Did you answer of them?

full plank Dec 1, 2021, 7:21 PM

#

yeah I mean the follow ups are pretty easy

#

like first two are super easy

#

And then last one is a bit more involved

#

And so the fourth one

#

It's manageable

winter elm Dec 1, 2021, 7:23 PM

#

full plank yeah I mean the follow ups are pretty easy

do you need to write code for every follow up ?

full plank Dec 1, 2021, 7:23 PM

#

nah

#

some follow ups have code

#

Others are just conceptual

#

Like

#

"what is the time complexity for xyz"

#

"what would happen if we extended this to a billion inputs, how would we scale"

#

Etc
